Unravel a Timeless Manuscript: "Chronoscript: The Endless End" Set for 2026 Launch on PS5 and PC

Get ready for an extraordinary adventure in 2026 as "Chronoscript: The Endless End," the highly anticipated 2D action platformer, prepares to launch on PlayStation 5 and PC via Steam. This groundbreaking title is the result of an innovative collaboration between DeskWorks Inc. and Shueisha Games, promising a gaming experience unlike any other.
Players will be immersed in a truly unique narrative, stepping into the shoes of an editor who finds themselves inexplicably trapped within the seemingly infinite pages of an ancient manuscript. This mysterious tome, penned by a writer who has traversed a millennium of existence, holds profound secrets waiting to be uncovered.
A Visual and Gameplay Masterpiece
The game's narrative unfolds across thousands of meticulously illustrated pages, brought to life through a breathtaking, hand-drawn pen art style that guarantees visual splendor. "Chronoscript: The Endless End" masterfully blends immersive exploration with challenging platforming. Gamers will journey through intricately designed 2D illustrated worlds, brimming with formidable combat encounters, while simultaneously navigating haunting 3D environments that represent the enigmatic writer’s mansion. This mansion is a place where scattered manuscripts whisper forgotten tales, and this seamless integration of distinct dimensions offers a truly unique gameplay canvas.

At its core, "Chronoscript: The Endless End" emphasizes strategic combat and deep exploration. To overcome the powerful adversaries guarding the manuscript's unresolved past, players must continually grow stronger, engaging in battles steeped in ancient grudges. The game's creative concept, where characters find themselves ensnared within their own stories, draws intriguing parallels to beloved titles such as "Plucky Squire" and the gothic allure of "Castlevania."
First unveiled to widespread acclaim during the PlayStation State of Play event in September 2025, this title further solidifies DeskWorks' reputation for pioneering narrative design and aesthetic excellence. It builds upon the success of their previous hit, "RPG Time: The Legend of Wright." Confirmed as a PlayStation console exclusive, "Chronoscript: The Endless End" is not currently slated for Xbox Game Pass or PS Plus.
With its compelling fusion of stylized action, profound storytelling, and clear inspiration from Japanese and Chinese anime culture, "Chronoscript: The Endless End" promises a rich, unforgettable adventure for enthusiasts eager for fresh, captivating experiences.
